Small teardrop tabs run in mirrored pairs down a fine central chain, tapering like a spine or a fern frond to a single rounded drop at the base.

  • Material: Pewter
  • Color: Silver
  • Length: 28 in
  • Drop: 7 in
  • Origin: Türkiye
  • Tab: 0.5 in

The Y-line elongates the neckline and does the work of a layered stack on its own. At 28 inches with a 7-inch center drop, it lands mid-chest on most wearers — worn best over a plain crew or scoop where the silver rhythm reads clearly against the fabric.
Details
  • Y-shaped silhouette
  • Dense soldered-tab construction
  • 7-inch center drop
  • Nickel-free and lead-free

Each tab is soldered individually, so slight differences in tab spacing and finish appear from piece to piece.

The Story

The necklace is built in Türkiye, where base-metal work is a long-running trade — pewter and silver soldered and finished by hand in small workshops rather than cast in molds.

The design takes one small unit — a leaf-shaped pewter tab — and multiplies it into a long, tapering line. Density is highest at the shoulders and thins toward the center front, so the piece reads like a spine or a fern frond as it drops toward the pendant point.

Each tab is soldered to the next along a length of fine chain, one joint at a time. The taper is controlled by eye, not template — more tabs at the top, fewer as the design narrows, hundreds of small joints checked for strength before the piece is polished and the clasp is set.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-soldered tab metalwork

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Store flat or hanging separately so the tabs don't tangle or scratch.

Questions

How long is this necklace?

About 28 inches with a 7-inch center drop, so it sits mid-chest to low on most wearers.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. The pewter is nickel-free and lead-free, so it works well for people prone to metal sensitivities.

Will the tabs tangle?

The tabs are soldered securely in place, so the shape holds. Store it flat or hanging rather than balled up in a drawer to keep it that way.

Can I layer this with other necklaces?

It is designed as a standalone piece — the length and Y-drop already create a layered effect on their own, so it wears best solo over a simple neckline.

Is the length adjustable?

No. The length is fixed at about 28 inches with a 7-inch drop, with no extender chain.
